Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,

Research of dielectric elastomer actuator parameters for an active vibration insulation system

Вестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроение
One of the ways of improving the characteristics of technological and analytical equipment is an application of “smart” materials, among which dielectric elastomers are promising due to their low elastic modulus and its high effect of internal vibration ...

Embedded Direct Ink Writing of Thermoset and Elastomeric Polymers via Frontal Polymerization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Embedded frontal polymerization direct ink writing (FP‐DIW) combines frontal ring‐opening metathesis polymerization with embedded 3D printing to decouple deposition from curing. A yield‐stress support bath stabilizes low‐viscosity inks, while on‐demand thermal initiation enables controlled front propagation. This approach expands the accessible feature

Dielectric elastomer actuators with elastomeric electrodes

, 2012
For many applications of dielectric elastomer actuators, it is desirable to replace the carbon-grease electrodes with stretchable, solid-state electrodes. Here, we attach thin layers of a conducting silicone elastomer to prestrained films of an acrylic

Effect of MWCNTs Dispersion and Loading on the Rheological and Electrical Properties of MWCNTs/Silicone Composite

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
The dispersion of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in silicone was significantly affected by the method of mixing. In this study, rheology showed that there was an optimal mixing time to get the MWCNTs disperse well and high loading of MWCNTs made ...

Covalent Functionalization of 2D Semiconductors: A Roadmap to Advanced Electronic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Review presents recent advances in the covalent functionalization strategies for two‐dimensional semiconductors and their implementation in modern technologies. Layered materials are modified through diverse molecular chemistries (e.g., thiols, diazonium salts, alkyl halides, and electron‐deficient species) to tailor their surface properties ...

An approach to validate the design and fabrication of dielectric elastomer tactile sensor

, 2019
We present an approach for evaluating the design of Dielectric Elastomer (DE) capacitive pressure sensors on robotic graspers. This approach has used the ANSYS software for Finite Element Method (FEM), along with a MatLab script for calculation of ...
